The Marsh Rainbow Arch Bridge is a historic bridge over Duncan Creek located in Chippewa Falls, Wisconsin. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.

History

Built in 1916, it was designed by James Barney Marsh of North Lake, Wisconsin, and constructed by the Iowa Bridge Company[2] at a cost of $13,950. It replaced another concrete bridge built in 1915, which was immediately wrecked by the spring flood of 1916. The use of reinforced concrete in bridges had been pioneered in Germany and Hungary and was controversial in Chippewa then, but Marsh's bridge has stood the test of time.[3] It was the only bridge over Duncan Creek to survive the flood of 1934,[4] and after 100 years, it is still in good shape.[3]
